You've lost more than 30% of your roster and the turnover has been in that range for the last 3 cycles. Maybe there's a correlation there to sucking. Maybe.

I think "fella" is the absolute bottom of the barrel. Somebody at the grocery store or Blockbuster video store calls you "fella" after shoulder checking you, it's high time for fisticuffs. "Champ" probably tumbles in slightly above that for me. I get called "champ" and start looking over my shoulder for Ricky fucking Schroder. After that it's "bud". When that waxed mustachioed bartender tells you to "check your vibes, bud" after you dressed him down for telling you that a martini can only be made with gin, it's time for a swift kick to that fucker's crotch. "Friend" doesn't exactly set me off, but it does let me know that I could I never be that guy's friend. Sitting atop the chain of common appellation condescension has to be "guy". It subtly signals both tones of derision and moderate respect, all at the same time. Dismissed as time warps from the early 20th century are pal, mack, and jack and anyone using those terms in common parlance should immediately receive an atomic wedgie.Â

People saw him coming and going and when reporting to authorities, kept mentioning a "guy" doing something with explosives.

ATM has several connections to the 5th of November: 1. Guy Fawkes Night is also called Bonfire Night, in which people celebrate an epic failure 2. Nov 5th is typically when the rollercoaster is in free-fall 3. Their roster is full of Guys. Well, Just A Guys (JAGs)

December 18, 20241 yr Author Just now, Teryor said: He's not going to the worst P4 school from Oklahoma we don't have to be this stupid I think what he meant was Arbuckle takes the HC job at Wazzu, and keeps Mateer.

December 18, 20241 yr This is feeling like the start of a fever dream OU's new shiny OC not even making it down to Norman before getting promoted to HC . The QB they've been chasing stays or goes to Miami . Veneables holding limp dicks in his hands trying to figure out what to do as he's the last dude trying to pick up scraps at 1:30 am before the bars closeÂ
December 18, 20241 yr Sure. Arbuckle was hired on 12-2, by OU. The portal opened on 12-9. I know Mateer is likely to sign with the Sooners, but this is 12-18 and there is not a single good reason for this not to have been complete by last Friday. Time is not on OU’s side. Edited December 18, 20241 yr by statsman
